Very honored and a great painting of happy cichlid fishes!
This happens when a 4 year old girl is listening to an awesome plenary by @WSalzburger @UniHohenheim @ZoolSocietyGer @dzgevol

...and most importantly: @CTrembo. Congrats!!! It's Lake Tanganyika by the way.
The role of exploratory behavior (and it’s genetic basis) in the adaptive radiation of cichlid fishes in Lake. See our latest work in @ScienceMagazine. Congrats to all including @emiliapsantos @_Bethan_Clark @m_matschiner @TschoppLab @millanek1 @WSalzburger @UniBasel_en

About 250 cichlid fish species have evolved in Lake Tanganyika in less than 10 million years. Researchers in Science have linked exploratory behavior to niche adaptation in these fish and identified a genetic variant with a strong effect on the behavior.

The cichlid fishes of Lake Tanganyika are highly diverse. So are their viruses. Read our latest work in @CurrentBiology

We "cleaned up" one of the taxonomic misplacements in the cichlid fish from Lake Tanganyika with Gnathochromis remaining for G. permaxillaris and a new genus Jabarichromis for J. pfefferi. Great work by Anja, @FredericSchedel, Fabrizia, @adrian_the_fish:

congrats!
🐟 Excited to share our latest paper on the adaptive radiation of cichlid fishes in Lake Victoria, now out in Nature (! A continuous fish fossil record from sediment cores shows a dramatic change in the fish community around 13ka. 🧵

In the eye of the beholder: See our latest work by Virginie Ricci et al. in @ScienceAdvances on visual opsin gene expression dynamics in the massive adaptive radiation of cichlid fishes in @LakeTanganyika, with a great cover by @angelfitor. @UniBasel_en
New research sheds light on the expression of visual opsin genes across cichlid fish in Lake Tanganyika. Learn more in this week's issue of Science Advances:

See our latest paper, this time not on (cichlid) fish(es), but on how we run our @evomics Workshop on Population and Speciation Genomics.
Yeah, our paper about the @evomics Workshop on Population and Speciation Genomics is out in BMC Evolution: Education and Outreach: With @jmibarth, Scott Handley, Daniel Kintzl, @guyleonard, @millanek1, @MeyerBritta , @WSalzburger, @jstefka, @emitruc
